Classical Net Review - Casadesus - Works For Violin Fritz Gearhart, violin john owings, piano * Kathryn Lucktenberg, violin Koch InternationalClassics 3 18991972), as most know, was a virtuoso pianist of the http://www.classical.net/music/recs/reviews/k/kch37528a.html
Extractions: Koch International Classics 3-7528-2 First of all, this is a very beautifully recorded disc, Gearhart, with his creamy-sounding violin tone, seeming right in your listening room. Most reviewers will turn first to the unusual repertory presented here, but I couldn't help but comment on the full, rich sonics right off, sonics that, if you like up-close miking, you'll find of demonstration-caliber. The Suite for Two Violins, as pointed out in Gearhart's incisive and informative notes, is modeled on Baroque forms. Casadesus gives us a sort of neo-Classicism that sounds nothing like Stravinsky's from that time. Here the five movements that comprise the work effervesce with color and wit, and fully draw you into their modern Baroque world. What one notices about this work in particular is that it contains not one extra note, not one moment's dawdling. It's pure, masterfully-conceived music that suffers the ironic fate of existing only in the composer's manuscript. Surely some publisher will come forth now and publish this most attractive composition. The Chausson Hommage is another fine work, sweetly melancholy in the opening and playful and witty in the central and closing sections.

Extractions: On June 2nd, I went to Fort Worth to compete in the 3rd International Piano Competition for Outstanding Amateurs, sponsored by the Van Cliburn Foundation. My parents accompanied me this time, as they did during the first competition in 1999. After we arrived at the airport, we went straight to Texas Christian University so that I could register and receive my welcome package. I received a warm welcome from the volunteers at Waits Hall who remembered me from last time. I then went to check in at the hotel and to get ready for the party at the Railhead Smokehouse, just down the road. It was good to see many friends at the party from previous competitions. There were quite a few new contestants this time. I met some of the Cliburn staff at the party. The food consisted of roast turkey or brisket with vegetables. It was very nice to see Stephen Hubbard, Professor of Electrical Engineering at Clemson University again. He showed me a photograph of his new 8 month old son sitting at the piano, and I asked him if he could play the Beethoven Opus 111 sonata yet. It was also good to see Viktors Berstis and to hear the latest recordings of his dog Daisy, singing to the Chopin 3rd Scherzo and Fantasy Impromptu. The next morning I went to practice at Waits Hall. This had been modernized and re-decorated since last time. Each practice room had a new upright piano. This was a big improvement over the pianos in 2000 that were older and mostly out of tune. I was given a three hour practice time, and this was longer than I needed. I can never play for this long without several breaks.

Extractions: BUY NOW AmazonUK AmazonUS Robert Casadesus is best known to moderately well-informed music lovers as a pianist whose performances of most of the Mozart piano concertos, from No. 17 upwards, were staples of the CBS LP catalogue. Sony, as the successor in title, have been less inclined to release them on CD although Sony France last year (2001) issued a bargain box of some of them. Allegretto and Allegro molto Chausson Hommage at first persuades you that it will be a soulful soliloquy (on the notes C H A U S S O N - it was written for the Chausson centenary), which in part it is but soon it throws off these widow's weeds and accelerates with passion through a tripartite scherzo. It was dedicated to Zino Francescatti as was the Second Sonata. The recording project as a whole is dedicated by Gearhart to Janet Ruth Brady. The leaflet is most beautifully produced. Koch often do very well in this department; witness the wonderful documentation for their Franz Waxman orchestral disc with Lawrence Foster.

Brian Becker, the House Elections and Regulations pro tem, received one application Wednesday and two others Thursday. Becker said he thinks publicity was the biggest help in encouraging candidates to apply for the office. Becker said he is not sure why there weren't more applications turned in for secretary by the original deadline on Saturday. He said he thinks some students just weren't interested before. "They probably thought it was a good way to get their foot in the door in terms of SGA," Becker said. The three candidates running for secretary are John Duncan, a sophomore premajor; Ben Rebstock, a sophomore radio-TV-film major; and Kyle Turner, a sophomore premajor. SGA President Ben Alexander said it is important these candidates applied because it shows there are people interested in the position.
